Anyone else have this problem on any meds? How soon does feeling or sex drive come back after stopping?
Yeah antidepressants cause this particular problem. For my husband, it's prozac and delayed orgasm. For me, it's Brintellix.

I found that we do get pleasure from sex, it's just that for it to be mind-blowing we need to allot more time for it - which is not entirely bad.

But I think having a healthy sex life is worth changing medications for. I got off prozac because it killed off my entire sex drive. I can't stress enough that stability should include a healthy sex life.
